“Young Master.”

After the large group of people left, a man in purple appeared beside Eldest Young Master Long and bowed to him.

“How did it go? Did she enter Jun Lin Hall?”

“No.” The man in purple shook his head. “Miss Zhao saw Yan Feng, and he made some sarcastic remarks. She didn’t seem to understand what he meant.”

He could not understand why Miss Zhao, who was usually so smart, could not recognize Yan Feng’s sarcasm.

“Ha!” Eldest Young Master Long chuckled. “It’s not that she couldn’t tell. She just doesn’t care about it.”

Zhao Xiaoli’s actions surprised even him today. This was the first time she had been so impatient.

It seemed like Qian Liuguang was hiding an incredible secret. Zhao Xiaoli, who usually kept all her schemes hidden, could not be bothered to hide them anymore.

The man in purple looked up at him.

“Young Master, what should we do now? Should we follow Miss Zhao?” he asked.

“No.” Eldest Young Master Long waved his hand at him.

Although Zhao Xiaoli’s demonic energy was insufficient, she was good at guarding against people. It was possible that the man he had sent to tail her could not keep up with her, and she had detected his attempt to monitor her.

“Order our people to stand guard near Jun Lin Hall. Tell them not to interfere with anything that happens in Jun Lin Hall. Their only task is to ensure the safe rescue of Master Ling and Zhao Xiaoli.”

The man in purple glanced at Eldest Young Master Long again. He reckoned he was expecting Qian Liuguang to fail.

It made sense. It would be strange if defeating Jun Lin Hall was that easy. Qian Jiyun should have heard about these schemes long ago, right?

“Yes, I understand,” he replied.

Just then, he remembered something else, so he stayed and continued, “To emphasise her close relationship with Jun Lin Hall, Miss Zhao even told Yan Feng about how Master Ling is gathering manpower. Will our people.. “No,” Eldest Young Master Long replied.

He had ordered his men to retreat immediately if they were injured. He would not give the people from the Jun Lin Hall a chance to kill them.

It did not matter if Zhao Xiaoli told Yan Feng about what Master Ling had done in secret because the people from the Jun Lin Hall were not stupid.

The various aristocratic families had been moving around frequently these days, so Jun Lin Hall had to have heard about it.

It was said that the Third Hall Master of Jun Lin Hall was in charge of gathering information. If he could not even gather this bit of information, Jun Lin Hall would have been destroyed long ago.

“Do what I told you to do. Don’t worry about anything else.”

“Yes, Young Master, ” the man in purple replied and turned to leave.

In the hall quarters where Qian Jiyun resided, Bai Ze lay on the lawn, gazing up at the blue sky, lost in thought.

Ever since he returned with Qian Jiyun, the wild demonic energy in his body had not flared up again. However, he felt terrible every time he watched his excess demonic energy seep into An Jiuyue’s body.

It was not that he thought much of it, but…

He felt that Qian Jiyun’s gaze toward him was becoming increasingly unsettling as if he had betrayed him.

But in all honesty, he did not do anything!
